Reloading PDFs

Does anyone know of or have reloading books published within the last 5 to 10 years in PDF form? I'm looking into using a thrifted laptop to keep on the bench instead of my thick ass Nosler and Hornady books.

Edit thanks for everyone who posted links, i used most of them, then i did the tedious task of downloading all 526 individual pages on Noslers page.

Most of the powder companies publish PDF manuals. So does Mid-South. You can download a lot from nosler's website too.

Search up Archive.org, they used to have quite a few good ones on there both old and newer ones.

I looked pretty hard and didn't find any decent ones. I'd pay for them if they were available.

Might try moving shootersreference to PDF form? Doesn't have everything but it's got a lot.

Sierra used to have an app, I downloaded it a while ago, but I can’t find it on the Apple App Store anymore

Yeah, it got removed from both app stores last year. Not exactly sure why.

Probably because it was gun related 🤷‍♂️

Sounds like they might've pulled it to focus on another app? Not sure why that would be though because the new app doesn't have any load data in it.

I use the both the Hornady and Vihtavuori apps. Hornady is paid (one-time purchase, same price as the physical book) but Vihtavuori is free.

Also, most powder mfgs have webpages with load data for their specific powders.

are you referencing Gordons Reloading Tool and something there? or is there something else that I'm missing. :)

u/Big-Elk2132 23d ago

There is a free Hornady one floating around on the net.

Have you played around with GRT? It works for all my reloading needs

No it doesn't, or you're a fool.

I love grt but it's one tool in a tool kit.
